I have hot chocolate every morning at work, which is what led to this entry. Growing up my mom always made me Nestle Carnation Hot Chocolate and I loved it. I don't really go to grocery stores, so I've had to get what the dollar store/Target sells- Swiss Miss.
Based on the names, it would seem that both types are Swiss (Nestle is a Swiss company), so both should be good. But I've recently realized that I prefer the Nestle. Not just because of taste, but because the Swiss Miss must continually be stirred or it will separate and leave a pile of chocolate at the bottom of the cup. Once Nestle is mixed, it stays mixed.
I guess I have to decide if it's worth going to the grocery store and paying a little more for the superior beverage.
Random facts:
- Swiss Miss is made by ConAgra Foods, which also owns Chef Boyardee
- Nestle also owns a lot of different brands
